" never had a issue with regular bolts. I am using BMS spacers and have concept one CS-5.0 rims. "

" I am running 10MM spacers (hubcentric) in rear and 5MM spacers up front with your hub extenders (love the hub extenders). I just want a very high quality stud conversion with lugs. If I want them fancy I will paint them lol! "

" think this way too. "

" studs are steel...lugs where aluminium. "

" I want sure, some say titanium just crack.....I just don't want this to every happen again lol! "

" Got a stud conversion, then got some aftermarket forged aluminum B Blox extended lug nuts. I was driving down the road and felt a very slight vibration and thought it was probably the road. When I got off on my exit my tire started rubbing pretty badly. At first I thought that my shaved fenders had seperated so I pulled over. When I checked, three of my lugs were gone and the three studs they'd been on had snapped in half. I only had two still holding the rim on. I'm pretty sure that the three lugs came off and the weight of the rim and the wobble from having no lugs, snapped the studs.

Here's what I think happened:

I had no idea that these were aluminum (got them from a a good buddy for free) and had taken them off and on repeatedly (5-6x, maybe more - wheels were tightened and torqued to 90lbs, which may have been high for aluminum) since I've been painting calipers, doing suspension work, shaving fenders, etc. I've been told that when you have aluminum lugs on steel studs the aluminum gets messed up causing actual damage to the steel studs making them possibly come lose.
Any opions or has anyone else dealt with a similiar situation? This could have been really bad had the wheel come completely off with my kids in the car, not to mention I'd been running some logs the night before on a private road - topping out around 140mph.

Suggestions:

What are the best steel lugs I can buy - money isn't an issue: "

" Had these on car for 2 weeks, got gloss black instead. These are bsaically brand new...all you need to do is put a couple strips of 3M tape on the cover and you are good, takes about 45 seconds to install these, look way more agressive than the regular side markers.

" Decide to connect my selonoid directly to the nozzle, it gives great response and no drain wich I love. The selonoid actually rests right on the coupler clamp so it has no stress at the meth bung.
